They were also notified of the mask change for next week. Did you guys test yesterday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said we may arrive an hour late in Coco Cay, if so, we will stay an extra hour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t want to dwell on the negatives but tomorrow is the last day before they throw us off the boat. We are in port at Freeport. Freeport is an industrial port that is not scenic. I have been here before and didn’t leave anything behind that I want to retrieve, so we are staying on board today. The crew ran a life boat drill this morning that passengers didn’t have to participate in. They did blow the alarm horn (7 short and 1 long) multiple times and that thing is loud. They even launched a couple life boats for practice. Staying on board means late lunch at Johnny Rockets (please note finally some food porn below). Good news, they still dance and the drink package gets you free milkshakes. We also learned you can go and pay no cover charge and get a milkshake to go. All of you future cruisers, take note. In my walking today, I found on deck 13 forward where they have stashed all the missing deck chairs. The other reason for not getting off is that the ship leaves at 3:30p. Tough to get value out of a day pass at a resort. Goodbye Freeport, I hardly knew ya. Yeah, I agree about Freeport. I learned that RCI uses Freeport to refuel & reprovision Adventure OTS. And, yeah, the ship is not in port very long. @HBCcruiser& I bought a day pass at an all-inclusive beach resort (Port Lucaya. I think) but it sure was a short day and the time flew by. Still worth it, imo. All you could eat Caribbean lobster for lunch! Edited August 6, 2021 by MorganClark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare umaine89 Posted August 6, 2021 Author #139 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Last day. It must be Friday. We have a Water Park cabana reserved. Henry gave us great service in the cabana. Checking if we needed drinks, brought us funnel cake and fruit that we didn’t ask for but was perfect. That’s called anticipating the customers’ needs. There’s two slide towers. The small tower has three slides. One slide you ride a mat. One slide has single or two-person tubes. The last slides has a tube that takes up to 4 people. The tall tower has 6 slides of varying thrill levels that you ride one at a time without a tube or mat. Surprisingly, although it is a incredibly long climb to the top of the tower, that is not the scariest ride. If you are not a thrill ride enthusiast, the two shortest slides really aren’t bad. There is also a pool where you can get a workout. Holding onto a rope and climbing across Lilly pads. Or climb a rock wall in the water. The wave pool was a lot of fun. If you’re not a water slide person, really no need to go in Water Park. The cabana had great service but really we didn’t need it with the island so empty. We got it on a deal that wasn’t that much more then the Water Park entrance fees for 3 people. We never waited in line. Everything we did today was waiting for us once we climbed the stairs. It was truly a Perfect Day in Coco Cay. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was truly a Perfect Day in Coco Cay. At Coco Cay. I had a day pass to the Coco Beach Club on days. I also did a jet ski excursion on day 1. On day 2. I had a day pass to Thrill Water Park but I didn't even use it because my body ( especially in a certain unmentionable part) was very sore from the jet ski ride (think pounding on the waves). So instead, I sat at the swim up bar in the Oasis Lagoon and pounded Pina Coladas all day. Decided to give my liver a(nother) work out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Morning, CC Jet Ski excursion: Have you done the same on Labadee? I have 3x. loved it, and am wondering if CC is set up the same. Experienced riders up front, allowed to go fast, a couple of stops to regroup, etc. Let me know your overall thoughts. Thanks! 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare umaine89 Posted August 7, 2021 Author #147 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Thanks to @HBCcruiser and @MorganClark for the inspiration of their July 17th live report.

Rare umaine89 Posted August 7, 2021 Author #148 Share Posted August 7, 2021 That’s the end. We are at the airport. We had a great cruise for our fourth time on Adventure. Clearly this was the best one of the four. I think wearing masks will be disappointing going forward, but I’d do it again, even with the mask rules as they exist starting today. At the airport, VeriFLY line had two people ahead of us. The regular check in line had at 30 people in it. If you fly American, do VeriFLY and you’ll save yourself a bunch of time. You do have to figure out where the VeriFLY line is. We asked an American rep and she put us in the right spot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After my cruise I have a flight at noon and I'm a bit nervous, but will just plan on being one of the first people off to hopefully beat the rush. Did you do a Royal transfer or taxi?
